Four American soldiers killed in Iraq attacks
Four US soldiers were killed and six wounded in separate attacks near Baghdad and west of the capital. A grenade strike outside a children's hospital near Baquba killed three soldiers and wounded four as they guarded wounded colleagues. A convoy west of Baghdad near Abu Ghraib was attacked, killing one more soldier and wounding two others. In Mosul, engineers from the 101st Airborne tore down a damaged villa linked to Odai and Qusai Hussein after a four hour gunbattle. The violence occurred as US forces pressed a hunt for Saddam Hussein's sons and as informants swelled tips following the brothers' deaths. The day included the wounding of Iraq's national police academy commander during a raid on suspected carjackers and multiple arrests.
